Environmentally Friendly
Our commitment to environmentally sustainable practices begins with our scientifically tailored detergents and laundering formulas. Mixing custom cleaning agents as needed for each load reduces the volume of harsh chemicals required to keep your linens clean. Fewer chemicals used means a cleaner world.
But it doesn’t stop there. Alsco Uniforms' process also filters waste, keeping more of the chemicals required out of downstream waterways. In addition, after filtering wastewater, we reuse the cleaned water for additional linen laundering services, using less water overall so there’s more to go around. Perfecting these processes has allowed Alsco Uniforms to reduce our overall water usage by 50% over the past 10 years alone.
Finally, our heat-recapture process allows us to convert the heat-energy in wastewater into usable energy for operating our equipment, reducing our overall energy consumption significantly.
These three processes, along with other innovative solutions, allow Alsco Uniforms' linen laundry services to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels, cut our water use and decrease our chemical waste, keeping our world as clean as your newly laundered linens.
